The historical vicissitudes of nature and human culture in this region, along with unique life forms, unfold here.
Book Description:
A city woman travels alone to the Tibetan region. In the distant highland interior, she encounters a mysterious Kamba man who claims to be the incarnation of the Green Bodhisattva, insisting on giving her an empowerment and teaching her secret mantras, thus leading to a series of mysterious and enigmatic stories. The city woman, in her reluctant pursuit of the soul of an old woman after her death, and in her arduous rescue of a Tibetan orphan, completes her personality transformation and realization of faith; amidst complex emotional entanglements with her former lover, the Kamba man, and a wise guru, her spiritual path blossoms, opening her third eye and ultimately experiencing the presence of deities "hellip;hellip;

Surrounding it are the Hai Dong Region, the Haixi Mongol and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, the Hainan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, the Haibei Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, and Xining City.
